$3.50 feet feet. The grade is from ~
to 40 per cent. which is scarcely eX-
ceeded by any rope road. In the md
die of the line at Alp Aemsigen, there
is switch. Seven thousand two hum
dred and sixty-scven feet of the entire
road consists of straight stretches,
curves, with radii of from 262 feet to
S2S feet constituting the remainder
The road includes viaduct, three
short tunnels and one long one. The
width of the track is 2 feet z inches.
The foundation consists of wall COW
cred with plates of granite and loose
material, and ON this the superstruc'
ture is firmly anchored.
The toothed bar-which is placed
midway between the rails and is som1-
what higher than the latter-consiSts
of soft steel and is provided with a
double row of vertical teeth which are
milled out of the bar. The cogged
wheels on the cars, which engage the
toothed bar, are arranged in pairs al
the right and left of the same. The
axles of these cog-wheels are not horl'
zontal with the level of the road, us in
the Rigi system, but perpendicular to
the same, this arrangement making II
impossible for the cog-wheels to be-
come displaced
The locomotive and cars form train
with two running axles and four cog
wheels engaging the toothed bar. The
boiler and engine are behind or below
the cars, which latter accommodate
thirty-two passengers. Brakes can be
applied to all the cog-wheels, and be-
sides this there are two clamps at the
upper running axle which clutches the
head of the rail, thus preventing the
upsetting of the cars by the wind. The
weight of the loaded cars is about d.
900 pounds, and one trip up or down
can be made in about eighty minutes
The idea of the Pilatus road origin
ated with Edward Locher of the firm
of Locher & Co., in Zurich, under
whose supervision and control the
road has been built. The engine was
invented by Mechanical Engineer Hnas
and Engineer Hensler, who has had
much experience in the construction Of
railroads. undertook to act as the rep

A PECULIAR RAILROAD.
How 1t Is Constructed to Climb Up an
Elevation of 1890 Feet.

Elevation OF $3.50 Feet.
If the Rigi railroad is worthy of be-
ing considered an extraordinary and
wonderful piece of work, the latest un-
dertaking of this kind-the building of
the railroad on Mount Pilatus Ger
tainly ought to attract the attention of
railroad engineers and of the travelling
public. This new road differs essen
tally from its oldest rivals in the con-
struction of its rOadbed, as well as the
rolling stock. The ruggedness and
steepness of the mountain, together
with its great height (6,S82 feet against
5,905 in the case of Rigid, offered much
greater obstacles than the roads pre-
viously built, and required an entirely
different system.
The restless spirit of man is always
glad to set for itself some new task,
and consequently men are found who,
equipped with the necessary capital,
were willing and able to carry out this
tremendous undertaking. When a
portion of the road had been completed
all fear in regard to strength and safety
was removed, for it was thoroughly
tested every day, the locomotives go
ing as often as was. necessary to that
part of the road on which they were at
work, carrying materials of all kinds,
weighing from 10000 to $4,000 pounds
The southeastern side of the mountain
was chosen for the road. which begins

A Pretty Sight.

One hot summer morning lot OF
English sparrows porched on the edge
of basin, in park i'll New York,
where the water of fountain fell in
cooling streams. The birds chirped,
and hoped along the edges and
plunged in to take their bath, and
group of children watched them with
delight. BY and by one of the little
sparrows tumbled into the basin, and
could not get out. His mates flew
about in great distress; then several
seized him by the wings with their bills,
fshed him out and laid him on the
grass. They shook him and rolled him
over and over, and such twittering
never was heard! At last he gasped
and stood on his tiny legs, and then
the others set up a great chorus of JOY.
The children seemed almost rs glad as
the sparrows that he was not drowned

TEN ROReER TOES.

There is q story that have been told,
And it's Just as old as babies are old;
For sweet Mother Eve, as every one knows,
Told to her babies the tale OF the toes
Told to her babies how ten little toes,
Each one as pink as the pinkest pink rose,
Once on time were naughty and bad,
And sorrow and trouble in consequence had;
How the big toe wanted butter and bread
After his mamma had put him to bed;
And this lying next said: "S'posen we go
Down to the pantry and get it, you know"
And this wicked toe cried: Come along, quick
Let's sugar the butter ever so thick"
And this naughty toe said: "Jelly for me
Top OF the butter and sugar, you see-"
And this little toe cried: "Goody let's go;
Wen slip down the stairs so quiet and Slow
So ten robber toes, all tipped with red,
Stole silently out of their snowy white bed;
While this wicked toe, so jolly and fat
Helped nine naughty toes to pitty-patpat
Along the big hall, with pillars OF white,
And down the back stairs devoid of light
Then this little toe got terrible scare,
For he thought in the dark OF a grizzly bear
And this little toe said; Nurse must be right
Bout gobbles and witches living at night"
And this little toe said: "A fox may be hid
In the hat-rack box right under the lid.'
And this little toe cried: "Dearie mel oh,
Lions and tigers is coming, know"
Then mamma came out with the beautiful
light,
Caught ten robDer toes all ready for fight.
Yes, she caught and kissed those ten robber
toes
Till redder they were than any red rose.

EATING TOO MUCH,
A Vice That Was at One Time Cultivated
Among Different Peoples.

A Vice That was at one Time Cultl0t01
Among Different Peoples.
The testimony of theologiaus, of his
torians and of an immovable tradition,
embodied in most if not all European
languages, proves that among our re-
mote though civilized ancestors, it was
common thing for men to cultivate
the appetite for quantities Of food till
it became diseased, and that they
gorged themselves with it habitually,
till they became almost as incapable Of
business and duties of life as drunkards
now do. They sought quantity, they
ate for eating's sake until they could
eat no more, and when they ceased,
were as incapable as man y animals af-
ter a similar indulgence. ct is ropu-
lar mistake to suppose that only pigs
are gluttons. Horses and cattle will
kill themselves with certain kinds OF
food, and so will individual dogs, while
all the wild carnivores are liable at
times to eat themselves into temporary
imbecility). They could not work,
they could not converse, and they
could not think. They were full to
bursting, and repeated the feeding I'M
til their lives became one long debauch
and their faculties died away as COM
pletely as if they had been
drunkards, though of course the
remedy, protracted fasting, was
easier to apply, Many of the
Roman mobiles were gluttons as well
as gourmands; indeed the accounts OF
their feasts indicate deep delight in
overeating as well as epicurism; and il
is probable that the vice existed in Sy.
ria, and amidst a generally abstemiouc
population--a Jew to this day is rarely
a drunkard, and an Arab never-may
have seemed specially disgusting. An
other bit of evidence is the continuance
of the practice in the East. Men who
eat enormously, who crave for huge
quantities of food and seek in over
eating a torpor which pleases them a,

CHASTITY Devices and Ornaments Con-
structed Out of Human Bones.
The Capuehin brother, attired in his
long habit of coarse brown frieze, his
waist encircled by hempen rope, his
stockingless feet bound in sandals, his
untrimmed beard and head bare, ex-
cept for dininutive skull-cap, is u
familiar sight on the streets in Rome,
which he patiently traverses, carving
an earthen pitcher as receptacle,
while he begs aims from house to
house.
The Church of the Fraternity is in

mediate vicinity of the Piazza Barber
mi. TWAS founded by Cardinal Barber
I'M brother Of Pope Urban VIII, in 1924
the same Cardinal who was the friend
of Milton when he visited the Eternal
City in 1888 The church contains the
tomb Of the founder and many remark
able treasures of art, including the
magnificent painting by Guido, repre-
senting michael the Archangel
Trampling the Devil"-the' latter a
portrait of Pope Innocent X, for whom
the painter seems to have had an invet-
crate hatred.
Passing through the church few
steps to the right will lead you to as
CHASTITY and at the same time as gro
tesquely horrible spectacle as the
morbid STANDARDIZATION flesh-creeping
experiences can possibly desire. A
series of four connected small apart
ments, the floors of which are made of
earth said to have been carried from
Jerusalem, contain the horrors speak
of, The walls and ceiling are literally
decorated with ornamented devices
constructed by cunning workmen out
of human bones. The bones of the
vertebra, wrists and ankles are ar
ranged so as to describe circles and
curves. These figures are interspersed
here and there with skulls, femurs and
humerus, tibias, fibulas, ulnas and
radius.
The same horrid ornaments are ar
ranged around the person of deceased
brother, who appears suspended against
the middle of wall, incased in the
coarse brown cloth, the garment he
lived, died and was buried in. The
dried skin clinging to the face of the
skeleton grins in horrible mockery as
the living brother. his former compan-
ion in flesh, conducts you around this
decorated charnel house. He looks as
though he chuckled over the fact of
having been released from the grave
below to give place to a brother more
recently defunct, for it is the rule of
the fraternity-who are compelled to
make a small burial ground meet che
requirements of the order-when a
death takes place to dig up the longest
inferred to make room for his success

There is a quality in the earth en-

UNION CRY, Tenn, April 13.--Union City
was the scene of q lynching to-day just
before noon. John Thomas, young mar
ried negro, was the victim. Last Sunday
evening Thomas, who lived in the yard Of
Mr.. Albert Turner, enticed little Bertha
Turner into his cabin while his wife was
absent and the girls parents were ut
church, and by threats and force outraged
her. He so terrified the girl she remained
silent for some time, but at last related
what had occurred to the negro's wife,
who notified the child's parents. A war
rant was sworn out by the father, but the
negro had left town on Monday. 1t was
ascertained that he had gone to Humboldt,
Tenn, and the marshal at that place was
notified to arrest him, which was done.
Marshal Sam Bratton went after the
prisoner last night, returning on this
mornings train. At ten o'clock his pre-
liminary trial was held before Justices
Umstead, Carter and Thomas, Lawyer A.
j. Harpole representing the State. The
negro failed to secure a lawyer, but
introduced several witnesses in the
vain attempt to prove an alibi. The
little girl, with her grief stricken
father and mother, appeared, and the little
victim gave her testimony, which was
clear and convincing, in an emphatic,
straightforward manner, relating in de-
tail the horrible deed. She is very intelli-

the eyes of many spectators, with which
the courtroom was densely crowded.

LINCOLN'S REMAINS,
Mystery Surrounding Their Whereabouts
To BE Cleared Up.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, April 13-The annual
meeting of the Lincoln Memorial Associa.
tion of this city, on Friday, will possess un.
usual interest, for at that gathering the
general public will learn for the first time
where the remains of Abraham Lincoln
have been for some years past. Ever since
the attempt to steal the remains their
exact whereabouts have been known to
but few persons. 1t has been well known
here that they were not in the marble
sarcophagus always shown to visitors
in the north hall of the monu-
ment. The search has been in the hands
OF the Memorial Association, ostensibly
formed to hold annual services, but really
to protect the remains. The members OF
the association were bound by oath not to
disclose the resting place of the dust OF
the President, and they have kept
their oaths. The time has now come in
their judgment when the remains may be
placed beside othose of Mrs. Lincoln, and
final preparations to that end were made
this afternoon. The removal will be made
tomorrow with the utmost secrecy, but
Friday written statement of all the cir
cumstances attendent on the concealment
and reburial will be had at the meeting OF
-he association.
